New description:

 here on a fresh El Capitan install it won't launch because it depends on

Comment:

 MacPorts only has the ability for one port to depend on another port. It
 does not have the ability for one port to depend on a specific version of
 another port.

 Sounds like py-mitmproxy needs to be updated to a version compatible with
 py-lxml 3.6 and later. mitmproxy 0.17.1 is available; maybe we can start
 with updating to that version.
